Abstract

An interface operating method is applied to a mobile device connected with a camera apparatus in a remote controlling manner to guide a movement of a user to compute a position parameter of the camera apparatus. The interface operating method includes displaying an image frame captured by the camera apparatus, displaying at least one indicating mark on the image frame, identifying whether a position of an object appeared on the image frame overlaps the at least one indicating mark, and acquiring coordinates of a plurality of feature point coordinates of the object according to an identifying result so as to compute the position parameter of the camera apparatus relative to a reference plane whereon the object is located.
